Our attempt to ensure that The Gummy Bear gets at least SOME documentation of his/her gestation.

Unlike with the girls, where I was so nauseous I could barely stomach white bread and saltines (and thus lost 10-15 pounds during the first 12 weeks), I have gained a solid 15 pounds with this little one. Looking at photos of Courtland’s pregnancy, I look about the same as I did when I was 4-5 months pregnant with her. But let me be clear, I would so rather take the hearty appetite and weight gain over the debilitating nausea. It may take more effort to get back to my usual pre-pregnancy size post-baby, but it is so worth it to be able to consume nachos with abandon.
